Watch South Korea's mascot hilariously fake an injury
No one likes a diver in football - but South Korea's white tiger mascot Baekho might just be an exception.
The mascot was seated at pitch side during the Taegeuk Warriors' 1-0 defeat to Uruguay at Goyang Stadium when a stray ball riocheted off an official's knee into its face.
Hysterical theatrics ensued.
While a little over the top, Baekho's antics certainly must have elicited a laugh from those who witnessed it.
It is not known if he was booked for simulation.
At least he really was struck in the face, unlike Rivaldo at the 2002 World Cup...
